Hello everyone,

Could you please show me how to typeset `spaces' between bars instead
of ordinary barlines? I would like to typeset spaces as the one shown
between bars 2 and 3 in the attached file `01.png'. I am now preparing
my PhD thesis on the folksong studies of the Czech composer Leos
Janacek, and there I have to show examples of the folksongs he himself
notated. Janacek, while compiling his last collection of Moravian
folksongs, often eliminated barlines -- as I have shown in the
attached picture -- so that unaccentuated syllables of words notated
as first beats (such as the syllable `-mu' in the picture) should not
be sung with accents.

Since I myself have not found a good solution to typesetting the
spaces between bars yet, to make such spaces I have only to prepare
musics with ordinary barlines and erase the `unnecessary' barlines
from the musics with the GIMP after converting dvi files into pbm. But
it is quite tiresome, and I think that it would be much better to be
able to make those spaces just by typesetting with MusiXTeX (I have
not got used to using PMX yet, sorry... I am a new user of both
MusiXTeX and PMX).

So I hope that some of you will give me some hints for solving the
problem. Thank you all very much in advance!

PS: I have attached the compressed source file of the music with the
`ordinary barlines', too.
